I remember seeing several months ago pictures of wooden blocks made to fit under the front and rear to jack the Vette up. I remember seeing jack stands then placed under these supports. Thinking of a winter project and would like to find the link to these again. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

I think that this is the thread you are looking for. http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...g&forum_id=103
Do a search and look for "lifting a c5", I think that is the name of the pictures of the ramps. Good luck in your search

I built a set of thoes..my only complaint...they're VERY heavy..(mine are nearly 48in long with three steps up Vs 2) and difficult to keep in place when driving up onto them....
